BODUM Anywhere Travel Mug, Large, Purple

#1: BODUM Anywhere Travel Mug, Large, Purple Reviews!

I might have set my expectations a bit high for a travel mug but for sixteen bucks and the BODUM name I took my chances and rolled the dice. First thing first, I bought this primarily as a coffee mug for the morning commute and the morning at work so the thing I was depending on was that it kept the coffee hot and insulated. I didn't have a stopwatch running but don't expect too much after an hour--maybe I just drink slow but I expected to have enough time to finish the coffee before it dropped in temp. One thing I noticed is that once you pour your brewed coffee in you can feel the warmth when holding the cup which means it is losing heat. That's the one thing that kept me from giving 5-stars but if you drink fast or get a smaller mug size then that shouldn't be a problem for you.

Next is the no-spill locking top, I haven't gone through the rigors of filling it up and shaking it upside down but with the lid screwed on and the center part locked I haven't had any leaks yet. One improvement I would suggest is a transparent lid, as it stands now I have a solid black top and taking a sip of hot coffee is a guessing game of not over-tilting the cup and scalding my tongue.

Aesthetically the thing is wonderful. The locking top is a great design, and the double walled plastic cup is a nice sculpt. The last thing I'll say though is that because of the design the cup is smaller on the inside than the outside due to the insulating walled design--it isn't a big problem but if you like a lot of coffee or what-have-you than consider the larger size before the smaller ones.
